Two great Team Days at the lab last week! 🧠✨
A great mix of scientific discussions, brainstorming, tutorials, and informal chats—fueling both collaboration and new ideas. On the menu: implicit timing, temporal distortions, time in working memory, and cognitive maps!
#LabLife
A must-read for alpha aficionados!
Congratulations to @nadiahosseinizaveh.bsky.social on a brilliant PhD defense: "Evolution and Dynamics of Perceptual Confidence: From Perceptual Learning to Global Confidence Formation". Impressive work advancing our understanding of perception and metacognition.
📣New paper out! We successfully replicated our previous work (Azizi et al., 2023), demonstrating that alpha activity is a marker of contextual changes during resting-state.

Preprint out, from my work with @mamassian.bsky.social and Anne! We show that time perception is shaped not only by context but also by structural constraints, by extending classical Bayesian models by explicitly quantifying a structural prior impacting duration discrimination.

Our results show that performance cannot be explained by Bayesian inference alone: behavior is best captured by a combination of Bayesian inference and a rescaling mechanism, meaning that perceptual systems realigned the two representational spaces of each stimulus within an internal scale.
